Error InvalidCastException on build #55

Closed paulohyy closed 5 years ago

paulohyy commented 5 years ago

I'm getting the following error when building the project: System.InvalidCastException: Cannot convert 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.TextTemplating.CommandLine.CommandLineHost' into 'System.IServiceProvider'

When running .tt inside Visual Studio, it works, but when building the project it throws that error.

<#
var serviceProvider = (IServiceProvider)this.Host;
#>

Any insights on how to resolve this?

Basically, you wouldn't be able to resolve it because TransformOnBuild uses command line host which is not the one VisualStudio uses and console host doesn't work as a service provider
